    O-100-- interesting new engine

    Whatever happened to the Pegasus 0-100 engine? Back when Pete was alive, I had paid in advance for one of these engines which was to be 001. Pete passed so that never happened. Spoke to Pete's son a few times and was assured that he would look into it. Haven't heard anything in over a year.

    O-100-- interesting new engine

    I sure hope this engine moves forward. My investment was to get me engine serial number 001. After seeing it at Oshkosh, I knew I would have to have one. Pete was really good about keeping me in the loop up until his passing. Really hope to see this engine start moving again real soon. Sitting...

    Anyone seen or heard from Tom Parker recently?

    That 107hp turbo version was just a figment of his imagination . In fact the business never did get off the ground. There wasn't one engine completed. From what I understand , everything is under lock and key for the time being. If someone who has the knowledge and some cash and is willing to...

    Hi guys' This is the last e-mail I received from his silent partner dated 6/23. Subject: Tom Parker I'm sorry for your loss, he has skipped out and left a lot of people holding the bag. The law is after him right now. Even if they catch him I think he will just go to jail or a nut house. I...

    Anyone seen or heard from Tom Parker recently?

    I read his post concerning the big one and nothing was mention in it about a safe. It only stated his hanger got uprooted but it was empty at the time. Must of threw in the safe for good measures after the fact.

    Anyone seen or heard from Tom Parker recently?

    From what I understand, Thunder Aviation has been shut down and Tom Parker cannot be found. As it turns out , Mr. Parker had very little money if any at all and his company was owned by a silent partner who was funding everything. While his silent partner was out of town, Mr. Parker was...

    Anyone seen or heard from Tom Parker recently?

    I would most definetly agree with you 100% but on the other hand, making a trip from Illinois to Alabama, that would justify some sort of recovery I would think. If he can make that kind of a trip, then I would surly think he can type.
